Use this interactive demo to learn how to set up and manage a sprint in ClickUp from scratch.

Quick summary

ClickUp sprints let agile teams organize work into focused, time-boxed cycles using a dedicated Sprint folder with custom fields, task views, and automation rules. This step-by-step walkthrough covers everything from creating the sprint folder to tracking tasks on a Board view and automating workflows.


Steps

  1. Inside your Space, click the '+' icon and select 'Sprint folder' to create a new sprint container.
  2. Click 'Save' to confirm the sprint folder creation.
  3. Click the '+Add task' button to create tasks that need to be completed during the sprint.
  4. Click the add icon to add a custom field for 'Sprint Points' or 'Time Estimates' to each task.
  5. Fill in task details such as descriptions, due dates, assignees, and any relevant custom fields.
  6. Select 'Board' view to visualize tasks in columns such as 'To Do', 'In Progress', and 'Done'.
  7. Click the 'Automation' button in the upper right corner to configure automation rules for your sprint.
  8. Start, track, and complete the sprint, moving tasks across statuses as work progresses to manage your agile workflow.

📌 Why this matters

ClickUp's built-in sprint management feature enables agile teams to plan, execute, and track time-boxed work cycles entirely within one platform — eliminating the need for separate project management tools. By combining a dedicated Sprint folder with custom fields like Sprint Points, Board view visualization, and automated workflow rules, teams can maintain full visibility into task progress from 'To Do' through 'Done'. This end-to-end sprint workflow reduces manual overhead, improves accountability through assignees and due dates, and keeps agile project management organized and scalable across any team size.
